Angel Reese unveils new look and shatters another WNBA record

The Chicago Sky may have stumbled against the Seattle Storm, losing 84-71 on July 7, but Angel Reese stole the spotlight in more ways than one. Not only did the rookie forward tally an impressive 17 points and 14 rebounds, clinching her 13th consecutive double-double and surpassing Candace Parker’s decade-old record, but she also unveiled a bold new look that’s got everyone talking.

On July 8, Reese took to Instagram Stories to reveal her latest transformation. Known for her long locks, the 22-year-old LSU alum switched things up with a sleek new bob. It’s a look that’s as fierce as her gameplay and has fans buzzing. In a league where style off the court can be as influential as stats on the court, Reese is proving she’s got both in spades.

Reese’s new hairstyle is more than a fashion statement; it’s a declaration. It’s as if she’s saying, “Watch me change the game-and look good doing it.” The bob is a chic, confident look that matches her on-court persona: bold, unyielding, and ready to make history.

Reese’s work ethic shines through record-breaking performance, says coach

This record-breaking performance isn’t just a testament to her talent but also her relentless work ethic. “It’s absolutely amazing to see,” Sky head coach Teresa Weatherspoon said of Reese’s accomplishment. “She might be surprising herself, but she’s not surprising me. It’s something that she can do because it’s something that she puts the work in to be able to do. And it’s a will and want-to… it’s awesome to see the work that you have to put in to be able to do this.”

As the Sky gear up to face the Atlanta Dream on July 10, all eyes will be on Reese. Whether they break their losing streak or not, one thing is for certain: Angel Reese will continue to dazzle both on and off the court. Her blend of athletic prowess and style makes her a standout, not just as a player, but as a personality.
